Description:"We want to go home," an Arab schoolboy writes on the blackboard in a refugee camp in Hebron. This longing to return to homes in Palestine is the dominant, almost-exclusive desire of 850,000 Arab refugees in camps scattered from Egypt to the Lebanon (except in Israel, where their former homes are).
